After many years as an EACVI member and serving on the Board since 2010, Prof. Edvardsen will now become EACVI President for 2018–2020. “I am very honoured to be President of such a great and growing organisation,” he said. “The main vision of my presidency will be to try to get Europe together in all aspects of cardiovascular imaging.” - writes EuroEcho-Imaging Congress News.

"We aim to enhance our engagement with patients to better define their needs in terms of access to information and education. We also hope to improve patient care by further developing and promoting multimodality imaging. We expect to have multimodality imaging certification in place by 2020, in time for EACVI 2020, which we believe will be the world’s leading reference event in cardiovascular multimodality imaging." - Prof. Edvardsen continued.
